Floor heating: 1 - Wall, 2 - expansion tape, 3 - floor, 4 - concrete screed 3-7 cm, 5 - concrete screed approx. 2 cm, 6 - heating cable, 7 - mounting tape, 8 - Styrofoam 2-5 cm, 9 - anti-moisture insulation, 10 - ceiling (subsoil)
Installations made with heating cables.
We will limit ourselves to discussing the issue of laying heating cables for space heating or additional heating, i.e. the so-called. underfloor heating. On the insulating layer (Styrofoam, hard mineral wool) 2-5 cm thick, it pours out thin (1 cm) concrete layer. On her (after the concrete has solidified) the cable is evenly distributed over the mounting rail or grid and covered with a 3-7 cm layer of concrete. In places, in which the subsequent furniture arrangement is planned, bathtubs, shower trays etc., heating cables should not be laid. Do not use smaller distances between cable turns than specified by the cable manufacturer. In case of foreseeing regulation of floor heating using a thermostat, należy między dwiema gałęziami grzejnymi umieścić w betonie rurkę o średnicy do umieszczenia w niej czujnika podłogowego lub zamontować na ścianie pomieszczenia czujnik powietrzny. Before pouring concrete, it should be checked, that the heating cable is in working order, i.e. there is no break. Due to the concrete setting process, the heating can only be switched on after approx. 28 days from flooding. In the case of a plank floor, the wire is laid on the insulating layer between the joists. It is possible to lay heating cables on the existing wooden floor. A layer is spread over the floor, plasticized concrete mass (2 cm), in which the heating cable is placed.
